Joubert to oversee Investec Super Rugby Final #WARvCRU

Experienced South African referee Craig Joubert will oversee the 2014 Super Rugby Final between the Waratahs and Crusaders at ANZ Stadium this Saturday.

The veteran, who oversaw the 2011 Rugby World Cup Final, will be refereeing his third Super Rugby Final, and second straight, with Joubert also in charge of the Chiefs v Brumbies decider last season.

Steve Walsh and James Leckie have been appointed as the assistant referees while George Ayoub is the television match official.

Joubert, part of an 18-man Super Rugby referee squad selected in late 2013, was arguably the most senior official this campaign after Jonathan Kaplan and Jonathon White hung up their respective whistles.
